2018 FIFA World Cup Quotes

For it to be in England would be great for the fans, players and the country. The facilities and stadiums are certainly good enough to host 2018. For me personally, I'd still hope to be playing. It would be a big bonus for me, as it would probably be my last World Cup, for it to be in England.

The facilities for both players and fans are magnificent, from training grounds to stadia and the passion of the English people for the game would ensure that everybody would be made to feel welcome. It would be a memorable occasion and would inspire people all over the world.
